Shift pin, transmission (3rd gear), and sometimes bad top ends. 06s also had a linkage problem.

They are A great bike i've rode a buddys severeal times , it good all around but when it comes down to it it just needs a little more umpff! [it has good suspenion good cornering but id go with a stock R or yfz over a LTR with a jet kit and exhaust] I'd go with a yfz 450 or 450R. They are good bike's though hell i wish i had one [or really any other race bike right now]

the only major problem they had was that every one of them was made by suzuki.....

My LT-R holds it's own nicely with YFZ's and TRX's.

So you won the 16-20B AMA/ATVA NHS? I was at Rd 1 didn't get to race, won Rd 2, shocks were at GTThunder for Rd. 3 and 4, called Chuck and he said that since I had missed more than 1 Rd I wasnt elligible to win points any more, so I didn't bother showing up... How'd you get credit for it?
